Hi
We have a Tomcat 7.0.39 instance with several applications running within it, but all running
as the same user as the Tomcat instance. We have a new application we are wanting to add,
but this needs to run with a different user as it has different accesses it needs that cannot
be granted to the other applications. I have searched and read, but found anything that looks
at this level of configuration.
For example, /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/bin/startup.sh is executed as 'fewperms'. It has an
application /mydbprocessor that does stuff using a jdbc connection to a db that also executes
as fewperms. I am now adding an application /mydeployer that needs to have sudo rights that
'fewperms' may not have (company policy).
I would prefer not to have a separate instance of Tomcat to achieve this. Everything I have
seen / read about so far is how to access TC as a user with a different user, not how to run
an application as a different user.
Thanks...Andrew
